My google-cloud free-trial account will run out soon, so thebootstrap IP address in the drops README will end upbeing non-responsive soon. I am not sure which cloudprovider I will use in future, so I am not signing upfor premium there yet. I am quite happy there wrt stabilityand the overall setup; its merely a matter of pricing.I plan to write some fancy ncurses GUI frontend for drops,so one can read and write drops messages in mutt-style,but that can take a while. (I need less ShadowLeaker 90's 0daythat reminds me of old times and more joy starting to learnncurses) Until then, someone else has to spend free bonus coinsof his cloud provider to setup drops bootstrap nodes (andthanks to that anon french guy running that 78* node :)
